ppl use grab because the price is cheap
but if the car is badly maintained + high price like u said
thn who is going to use it?
ppl are treating socar like an experiment only, not as long term solution...there is no such thing as strong customer base unlike grabcar vs taxi
*
i will use it to test drive other cars that i cant afford hahahaha

you cannot compare grab with this.

I honestly think if SOCAR really strict in rules and regulations. maintaining a good car wasn't a big problem.

their approach is real damn good if compared to those rental company.

they should have team of people to collect car. not letting user return suka suka.
*
agree on approach is good, being able to rent a car whenever u like, wherever u like
but if u get a bad condition car most of the time, most won't return

there u go, another experimental drive....just to experience the car
not really having a purpose like grab
ppl here just merely using socar to test out new car or use it to haul some heavy stuff that they don't want to use their car for
can they do this on rental car?...i don't think so...they will need to pay for damages whereas u don't for socar
haven't even went into the "promo code" topic somemore that made the cost cheaper laugh.gif
this is why i say socar won't last

Its not really about socar....its the user problem.. Maybe socar should introduce some kind of point system for user. If they use a good gps device, they should know how the user use the car...and maybe they can put incar dashcam to also record the driver and passanger

Socar does install dashcam on every of their cars. The problem is that the user purposely disconnect the dashcam. doh.gif

Its their own car lah, not lease from other people. U see all their cars are brand new and have commercial license sticker on their windshield and all of their roadtax are only less than RM10. All the cars in their range have the same exact specifications. Like for example the Passat is Trendline Plus variant, the Altis is the 1.8G variant, the MyVi is 1.5H, Iriz is the 1.3 exec variant, and so on and so forth

Are u sure about it? Back then my friend saying not entire car fleet is under socar ownership, some BMW is under ownership of individual and they sign a leasing agreement to socar. The leasing price is much higher than the car instalment so owner enjoice.

Commercial license doesn't mean is all under socar also.

yes, the dashcam is towards the front road but it also record sounds, etc. I think that's enough to find fault with abusive users. I took a few socars and the dashcam was plugged out when I took the car. Definitely been done by the previous user.

And also yes, I experience smelly smoker's car when I took the car. Complaint to SOCAR and they told me to get the car wash and in return, they'll reimburse me in terms of FREE 1 HOUR rental instead of CASH!?!?!?!? Why should I go though the hassle for FREE 1 HOUR RIDE!?!?!?! doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif

Btw dont blame Malaysian mentality, if u see the comments section which is compulsory for users to rate after using the car, u can see most users are actually arabs/ foreigners students

I'm a frequent user of socar despite having personal car for myself.
Always rent the Altis as is much premium yet not that different from City and Vios in terms of pricing.


The concept is very nice, I like the afforable rate and free 30km worth of petrol that is provided for every hour.

Customer service could've been improved.
The petrol card at times, will reject your transaction sometimes doesn't even work at particular card.

To fuel up using your own money is rather a gamble, because it's gonna be weeks of waiting and probably won't get back your money.

I feel bad for Socar when people can't appreciate nice things. Some brand new cars already have scuffs and scratches.
